I was so afraid it was too much to hope for at the sight of a happy ending! But no big twists, no huge second shoe dropping! This is really awesome and I admire your ability to keep the universe going while keeping it fresh each and every chapter as it goes by.

Sure keep going if you can! I know I'll read it~

That's what I'd be mainly concerned with if I kept this going- keeping it fresh. ^^ Since I've already developed the key points in their relationship (though they have far to go yet) I'd have to drive the next one more by plot... but we'll see if I can't come up with anything decent.

Glad you enjoyed a happy ending. :) We so very rarely get one with mylar.

Thanks for reading and leaving a comment!

Thanks for the compliment! If I can't put out something substantial, I hope I can at least provide you guys with drabbles and such. ^_^

Thanks for dropping me a comment and reading!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

SO AMAZING!!

OMFG! THE INTENSITY! SAVING EACH OTHER! Aaaaa!!

Okay, now for a more coherent review:

*You so completely captured Bennet's character--which is hard to do in fic!
*I absolutely ADORED the flow of the Mohinder/Bennet conversation!
*And both Sylar and Mohinder's movements to save one another were perfect.
*This is probably one of my favorite 'verses ever, not only in Heroes fandom, but in all the fandoms I've ever been a part of.

"If I do choose to continue in this ‘verse, the next series would have to be much more plot-driven, and with life as hectic as it is, that might take me a while or a partner in crime or two to complete it..."

I absolutely adore this 'verse, AND I'd love to help you out in continuing this sheer genius! Here's my Heroes and/or Mylar fic if you're interested and want to know how I write!

Eeeeeeee! YAY FOR THIS VERSE!

Oh Bennet... I had so many issues trying to capture his character, especially since in the last few episodes we've seen a much darker side of Bennet. Still, aside from revenge, I feel like his character was driven by needing Mohinder's work more, in this 'verse, so I'm glad you thought his character was on.

*I absolutely ADORED the flow of the Mohinder/Bennet conversation!

You have NO idea how long I avoided writing the last chapter because I had no idea how I wanted their arguement to go. Once Mohinder's line about snuffing out a life hit me though, the rest of it wrote itself. ^_^

*This is probably one of my favorite 'verses ever, not only in Heroes fandom, but in all the fandoms I've ever been a part of.

Aww! Thanks! It's not much of a 'verse, but it gets the job done...

Once again, my love for this saga knows no bounds.

I'm so glad that Bennet didn't just shoot - as fics are wont to have him do - and it has more to do with the fact that I don't think killing Sylar is his objective at all (than just my need for living, breathing Mylar). After all, all Bennet really wants is for his family to be safe and whole. So long as Sylar is not a threat, Sylar doesn't need to be dead. (Thank you, Mohinder.)

That Mohinder was the one to save the day made me happy as a clam. I'm glad to see Mo' as more than some whimpering pussy scientist because he's a man - goddammit - and acts like one. He's got his fair share of balls, just like Sylar, and we've all seen him display that bravery - however shaky and unsure - and not back down. So, yes yes and more yes, to him sticking to his guns and not relenting in the face of Good Guys.

As for you continuing this saga, I dunno. I want to see more, of course, but it's kinda nice where it is, too. That Detective Preston got a 'goodbye' makes me feel like we readers should ( ... )

I definitely agree, Bennet's motivations don't rest with killing Sylar at the moment; he made it clear in the beginning of Broken Glass that what he really wanted was Mohinder's work, and with Mohinder having (Yes!) the balls to stand up to Bennet's ways, he's not going to let Bennet do whatever he wants just so he has protection.

As for you continuing this saga, I dunno. I want to see more, of course, but it's kinda nice where it is, too. That Detective Preston got a 'goodbye' makes me feel like we readers should be getting a little note of our own. Thank you SO much for your honesty in this. All your comments about what a continuation would be are very valid, and I'm glad you pointed them out. I do agree, it would have to be very different. I don't know that it would even be a sequel, per se, so much as me playing in this universe. I had considered dabbling in the Season 2 plot, but to be honest, I'm so positively insane right now with my undergrad work and grad applications that whether or not my brain can take it is another ( ... )

Squee!!!! It was such a pleasant surprise to log on tonight and see this chapter posted (cuz it was only 9pm where I live). What a great ending to a fabulous series. I got teary-eyed when Mohinder stood between the gun and Sylar. I'm so glad that they could get a happy ending, after taking a chance on making them vulnerable to each other. You did a fantastic job with capturing Mohinder's strength, and making it such a vital part to the story ( ... )

Your favorite line there was one of mine too-- I actually came up with it long before the arguement that I wrote itself. ^_~ Glad it stuck out for you!

Please continue! It wouldn't be beating a dead horse, the opposite. The horse is alive and kicking and wants another go!

A possibility, though with alterations and reconsiderations, like I said in sarisia's comment. *points up* I do like playing in this universe, and I'd like to do something more with how their relationship ends up. But we have yet to see!

Where's the motsureru fan club? I wanna join!

LOL. That always gets me and makes me blush when you guys say that. But hey, I'm not the person to talk to, I'd never make a fanclub for me... :P

In any case, thanks SO much for commenting and giving me your feedback. I really do appreciate the time you took to offer your thoughts. ^_^ Hopefully I'll have something more for you in the future! Thanks!
